Victory in Life
Chapter 610
Haddock Mining Group.
The first major private mining company in the country, despite being a private capital, the Westerhoff City Mining Group owns 32% of its shares and IBCS owns 19%, to some extent, it can be seen as a state-owned company.
The franchise has always belonged to the Haddock Chamber of Commerce, meaning it was in the hands of Gale Hurlbutt.
After all, without state funds, it would not even be possible to obtain a mining permit, let alone open a mining business within the country, mining was under the control of resources, and so on, and it's not a trade that anyone can do as they please.
At the same time, it is also a business enterprise in the stock market.
When JW Capital and the Haddock Mining Group both released official statements, the share price of the Haddock Mining Group began to rise.
At the same time in a luxurious residence on the outskirts of Mauritius.
In the luxurious room, Sirius hit the table hard and growled in annoyance, "What did that bastard Jasper do?! does he really want to fight to the death with us?!"
Conrad was the only person in the room beside Sirius, and he was currently focusing on cutting the cigar in his hand.
Hearing him, Conrad replied calmly, "Look down, don't you think you're being silly? we've been past the point of reconciliation for a long time, or do you somehow think this won't end with one party dead?"
"There's no rule under the sun that states that only we can attack but they can't retaliate, he just managed to hit you in a painful place this time."
Sirius suppressed the anger within him and complained to Conrad, "You may not know this, Mr. Monty, but the entire focus of the Hanks family is on this one business, this one, we were just about to import the goods for a year when Jasper ruined our plan."
"The sales channel below us came to see us in the last two days, saying that we reimbursed them according to the contract signed, or we gave them the goods, if this continues, then, the Hanks family will end even without Jasper's attack."
Conrad replied calmly, "Then it's so easy, there's more than one manufacturer in Waterproof City in the country, there's nothing stopping you from buying from another manufacturer."
'Oh, you sly bastard!'
Sirius was very unhappy, but his expression did not show his emotions, he instead smiled bitterly, "It's not that easy, a business like this requires a deposit before manufacturers start producing goods."
"We've tried to find a replacement manufacturer before, but they rejected us directly, or they set a very high price, the Hanks family is not stupid, we will eventually make a loss if we agree, he said, I might as well pay the compensation according to the contract at this point."
"So pay the compensation, then." Conrad smile.
Sirius quickly explained, "We have dozens of sales channels under us, we can go bankrupt right away if we compensate them according to the contract, we are in alliance, don't we, Mr Monty? you can't just watch me meet my end like this."
Conrad glanced at Sirius and asked calmly, "Do you want me to give you money or stuff?"
Sirius was stunned because he did not expect Conrad to be so willing, he went deep, saying, "It would be better if I get the item, that way, we can still continue with the business."
"You're a funny guy, Mr. Hanks, the Monty family isn't involved in such an industry, so how do you expect me to find so many items in such a short amount of time?" Conrad asked calmly.
"For the money, I'm sure you wouldn't believe it if I said I didn't have, it's not sincere if I said it too, however, the Monty family's money belongs to the family, it means I can give you a little to help the situation, but not enough to save your life, do you understand what I mean?"
Sirius' expression worsened.
The end is inevitable if even Conrad is unwilling to help him.
He only knew because some old partners told him, they were the ones who had worked with him for a long time, so they told him about it because they were friends.
Sirius was lost.
Seeing how devastated Sirius was, Conrad's impatience grew.
However, he did not reveal what he felt because he knew if the Monty family wanted to benefit from this, he also had to be wary of the Hanks family.
"Looky."
Conrad played the cigar in his hand and explained calmly, "Patience is very important for many things, look at this cigar, for example, from planting to picking these tobacco leaves, to processing, fermenting, and so on, and making these leaves into rolls, it takes about a dozen skilled workers at least five months before one cigar is made."
"The world would be less interesting if everyone was as impatient as you."
Turning on the cigar, he took a deep breath and exhaled slowly, thick and fragrant smoke billowing around the room, covering Conrad's face slightly, making the man look unreal.
"I'm going to talk to people in Harbor City about the situation, if Kennedy wants you to work for him, then it doesn't make sense for him to do nothing and watch you die, he said, just because I can't do anything doesn't mean he can't, okay?"
With such a promise, Sirius' expression eased as he nodded, "It seems that's all we can do now, though, I'm afraid I can only last at most five days if I don't have anything to give to the sales funnel."
"Excellent," Conrad sneered silently.
At that moment, someone knocked on the door.
"Lake in."
The door opened to Conrad's reply.
"Master Monty, I just received word from the investment department, there is a change in the Skyward Aluminum family stock price, it has already increased to its limit now, according to our prediction, it is, someone might try to buy Skyward Aluminum stock for nefarious reasons."
Conrad was stunned for a moment before he exploded, "You useless trash! why did it take you so long to report it to me?!"
The man looked distressed as he explained in fear, "It happened too soon, Mr. Monty, it only took five minutes for the stock's price to rise to its limits, we can't even react in time."
"You're all completely useless! immediately contact the managerial meeting at Skyward Aluminium! go, what are you waiting for?" Conrad yelling.
The man immediately fled without hesitation.
Inevitably Sirius was pleased to see Conrad agitated at that moment.
Jasper finally moves against Conrad.
It made Sirius relieved that he was not the only one who suffered anymore.
In fact, he wanted to take the cigar for himself and repeat Conrad's words to him unhurriedly, 'Casual, everything in the world is more interesting if not rushed."
